Question

What is the volume (in cm3) of a 36.7 g piece of metal with a density of 6.95 g/cm3?

Answer 1

To calculate the volume of given metal, we use the formula

`Density= (mass)/(volume)`

Given, the mass of metal 36.7 g and density of metal is 6.95 g/cm3

Therefore,

`6.95 g/cm^(3) = (36.7 g)/(volume)`

or
`volume = (36.7 g)/(6.95 g/cm^(3) )`

`volume = 5.3 cm^(3)`

Thus, the volume of metal piece is
`5.3 cm^(3)`
